1. Most of the people I spend my social time with either have no religious affiliation

or don't really talk about it. I do have some friends who are vocal atheists, but many are apatheists.

Now, in my immediate family, I have a great variety. My father is a minister. My sister is an active church member. I spent some time with my mother's family when I was young, and they were born again christians. My step-daughter's family are evangelical, she is atheist and has married a Muslim. My son is engaged to a Catholic with a strong Catholic family. My other son worships the holy medicine of weed, lol.

This diversity has driven my interest in religion and in the role religion plays in relationships and families.

Like you, I think we all have more in common than we do differences.
